Sadie Barnette exhibits in the Joslyn Art Museum's Riley Contemporary Artists Project
OMAHA, NE.- Sadie Barnette exhibits in the Joslyn Art Museum’s Riley Contemporary Artists Project. Working across drawing, sculpture, photography, and installation, Sadie Barnette mines both personal narratives and collective histories, exploring how the two intersect and diverge over the course of one’s life. Her exhibition in the CAP Gallery centers on a recording she discovered on a doorbell security camera. In the short black-and-white video, the artist’s father is seen removing helium balloons from the trunk of a car. As he wrangles the inflatables-a gift for the artist’s mother-a single heart-shaped balloon floats away without his notice, prompting a bewildered search of the vehicle. Upon reviewing the footage, Barnette recognized that an easily overlooked episode had many stories to tell-about gestures of affection, about bearing witness to everyday life, and about the transformation of a fleeting moment into the stuff of family lore.
